August 16, 2025 Will WVU Football SHOCK the Big 12 with an Elite Passing Game in 2025?
WVU football coach Rich Rodriguez has complimented his quarterbacks multiple times since the start of Fall camp. He's even hinted that the Mountaineers could potentially throw the football more than they run it in 2025. With Rich Rod known as a run-first coach, this came as a surprise to many WVU fans. In this episode, Couz is going to explain why West Virginia being a pass heavy team, or at least a more balanced team, can be a winning formula in Morgantown. Couz will bring stats from some of Coach Rodriguez's previous stops and talk about why the strategy may work for the current Mountaineer team. #wvufootball #wvu #richrodriguez

August 14, 2025 Could West Virginia REALLY Leave the Big 12 for the SEC?
Recent online rumors, spread mainly by shows like @LockedOnBig12 have fans speculating that WVU could possibly be leaving the Big 12 Conference for the SEC. In this episode, Couz will share whether or not that rumor is true. Is West Virginia even on the SEC's radar? If so, could it be soon? Couz explains. Also, Couz will explain the origin of this rumor.
Couz will also talk about other conference realignment speculation, specifically around Big 12 expansion. If the ACC loses some of its top brands, could the Big 12 grab teams like Louisville or NC State? Couz explains how that would be possible and how information from a big time media source and a Power 4 Athletic Director shaped his thinking. #wvu #conferencerealignment #big12football

August 09, 2025 How Many Games Will WVU Win in 2025? | Gold & Blue Breakdown Ep. 39
The second run for Rich Rodriguez as head coach of the WVU football program begins on August 30, 2025. How many games will Rich Rod win in his first season back? Couz and Jonathan give you their thoughts in episode 39 of the Gold & Blue Breakdown show.
From the season opener against Robert Morris, to the Backyard Brawl, to nine games of Big 12 play; the 2025 college football season is full of exciting games for the West Virginia Mountaineers. With so much parity in the Big 12 Conference, and with so many question marks for WVU, it's even harder to know what to expect for this upcoming season. How good will Pitt be this year? Can Arizona State be even better than they were in 2024? Does losing Travis Hunter make Colorado more beatable? Can Utah turn things around this year? All of these are questions that Couz and Jonathan will tackle in the episode. #wvu #wvufootball #wvumountaineers

July 25, 2025 Should West Virginia Fans Be Worried NOW? | WVU Taking Steps to Increase Value
In this episode, Couz talks about WVU football and WVU sports as a whole being ranked well below its peers in brand value. He will show data sourced from both The Athletic and CNBC and prove why Mountaineer fans should be concerned about the future of Mountaineer sports. In the second half of the show, he will talk about ways Wren Baker and the administration are combating these low value numbers.
As the future of college sports and conference realignment remains unknown, its critical for West Virginia Mountaineer sports to be relevant on the national stage. Couz will show the numbers that prove WVU is valued well below the cutoff point to ever be included in the Power 2 conferences of the SEC or Big 10. However, he will also talk about some specific ways in which the West Virginia Athletic Department is working hard to change the image of WVU sports and keep them relevant. #wvu #wvusports #wvufootball #conferencerealignment
